Self-test on dominant strategies, dominated strategies, and Nash equilibrium

GAME 4
                                           Column
                                     Left            Right
                   Up               10,3              1,1
 Row                                         
                   Down             2,2              3,10
 
4_3 Which of the following are Nash equilibria?
A. Up, Left
B. Up, Right
C. Down, Left
D. Down, Right

D. CORRECT. Neither player can gain by deviating.

There is another equilibrium, too, though, so keep looking. If there is a dominant strategy equilbrium, it is unique, but that is not true of Nash equilibria.
